ok so they picked up this dude from calgary, i think his name is daniels or something? tbh he's got a pretty sick shot, been watching some highlight reels and he looks legit

honestly dont know much about this guy but glad we're finally getting some depth on the wing imo nhl ready talent from calgary sounds like a nice get

totally agree about the depth on wing man, but gotta ask are you sure this guy is nhl ready?

I think we're making too much of this pick being NHL ready or not at this point. The kid's coming from a system that's produced top-end talent and he's already got a high-danger chance creation rate in the OHL, which is more telling than his raw stats.

@fenwickfan got some valid points 🤔📊 but let's see him light up for real in the AHL first 👀💨

@fenwickfan brings up a good point about the kid's system but i'm still saying he's gonna have trouble making an immediate impact, he's got skills tho man
